The next three years will see a new type of supermarket
being rolled out in the UK by Sainsbury’s.
This has been confirmed by bosses.
This new format of shops has been given the name ‘Neighbourhood Hub stores’ and their aim
is to be the best ‘one-stop’ offer in a community. They are also going to cater
to the shift in consumer behaviour that took place during the pandemic.
According to the supermarket chain, “These new stores are a food-led extension
of Sainsbury’s renowned convenience offer and are set up to serve longer
missions due to their size and location”.
In these outlets, customers will have the opportunity to
enjoy value-added food proposition with coffee to-go and fresh juicers, a broad
produce range, meat-free and plant-based options, a variety of scratch cooking
ingredients, floral and gifting, pet and household supplies, cosmetics and
integrated beauty. Moreover, it will feature Argos and Tu clothing
collection points.
Putting food at the heart of the business, Sainsbury’s
is going to open 18 of these hub stores. Nonetheless, their locations have not
been disclosed yet. The firm’s Director of Property advanced that they have
received a huge amount of local support ever since they have announced plans to
open these outlets. So, they are confident about the project.
